Hi,

I used the wizard to create Nickel. It created a one BSDF material. The one BSDF which was created has a weight of 60. I am curious why the weight of the one BSDF is not 100 since it is not blending with another BSDF.

Thanks for any insight.

Tom is the guy to answer this question. But I can give you a tip on metal creation that the wizard doesn't do: duplicate the BSDF at a lower weight (20) and a small amount of roughness (5 or 10).

If you input a higher roughness an additional BSDF will be created and blended.

Cool, I didn't know that!

I see. Thanks. I did not want a 0 roughness anyway. I guess I just breezed over that. I just changed the roughness after the fact. So I guess I am rendering with an incorrect material. I will recreate it setting the roughness in the wizard.
